Send us a textIn November 1959, the small farming community of Holcomb, Kansas was shattered when four members of the respected Clutter family were brutally murdered in their own home. Herbert Clutter, a prosperous wheat farmer, his wife Bonnie, and their teenage children Nancy and Kenyon became victims of two ex-convicts chasing a prison rumor about a safe full of cash that never existed.This is the story behind Truman Capote's groundbreaking true crime novel "In Cold Blood"—a meticulously planned crime that revealed the terrifying randomness of evil and changed how America viewed rural safety forever. Dick Hickock and Perry Smith drove 400 miles across Kansas with shotguns and rope, intending to rob and kill from the very beginning. What they found instead was a family whose only crime was being in the wrong place when evil came calling.Join host Carman as she explores the psychological dynamics between two killers whose partnership amplified their worst impulses, the devastating impact on a close-knit community that never locked its doors, and the investigation that eventually led to one of the most famous manhunts in American history. We'll examine the disturbing evidence of sexual assault, the methodical execution of an entire family, and the questions that still haunt investigators more than 60 years later.This episode contains detailed discussions of violent crime, murder, and sexual assault. Listener discretion is advised.Note: This episode sets up next week's deep dive into the Walker family murders—a potentially connected case that led to the 2012 exhumation of the killers' bodies in a search for DNA evidence. https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com #InColdBlood #TrueCrime #ClutterMurders #TrumanCapote #Kansas #FamilyMurder #DeadlyIntent #PodcastTrue #ColdCase #1959 #PerrySmith #DickHickock #Holcomb #RuralCrime #AmericanCrime🎙️ **EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT:**🔮 Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore💀 Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://carmanscrypt.buzzsprout.com 🔍 Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com🏚️ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror ☕ **SUPPORT THE SHOW:**🖤 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion ☕ Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion 📱 **CONNECT WITH CARMAN:**🌐 Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion🐦 Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ 🔔 **SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW:**🎵 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY🍎 iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales! 🌐 **DISCOVER MORE HORROR:** http://eeriecast.com/https://www.carman-carrion.com/ **MUSIC CREDITS:**Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.Support the show

Send us a textSeason 1, Episode 11 – Deadly IntentThis episode examines Albert Fish, a serial killer whose intent went beyond murder—he weaponized his victims' suffering through calculated psychological torture, sending horrific confession letters to families and fundamentally changing how America thinks about child safety and stranger danger. Through the lens of criminal intent, host Carman Carrion explores how Fish's systematic psychological warfare extended across decades and generations, why he needed the world to know exactly what he was capable of, and what his case reveals about the nature of evil itself. The episode also examines modern child safety research, debunking the "stranger danger" myth Fish helped create, and offers evidence-based guidance for protecting children without teaching them to fear the world.Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence against children, psychological torture, and disturbing criminal behavior.
